Hey Andre, 

Sorry to hear you're having problems with your game. We'll probably need more info on the crash to help you out. Any way to see your crash log with your game engine, or see what kind of errors you get? 

"When I made a sound bank wem (not vorbiss) ..."
- Just a thought... do you know that you "can" have vorbis audio inside a .WEM file? A WEM file is like a container of audio data, which could be PCM, Vorbis, AAC, and so on. Just like a WAV file contains PCM data. (more about the .WEM format in the Wwise 251 course)

Let us know if this helps!
